Payment Charged, but Paid Subscription not honored. Could you return my number and apologize?
I subscribed to Dingtone's Virtual Phone Number service on July 23, paying $4.99 plus applicable tax per month. My subscription was successfully renewed, and payments were automatically deducted from my Apple Account balance on July 23, August 23, September 23, and October 23.
However, despite the successful payment on October 23, 2026, Dingtone failed to renew my subscription or extend my virtual phone number's validity. Instead, my account displays a warning stating that my phone number will expire on November 3, 2026, as though the October payment had never been received.
The payment was successfully processed by Apple, and I have documentary evidence of the transaction.
How can a company collect payment for a subscription while failing to provide the corresponding paid service?
I expect Dingtone to investigate this billing discrepancy immediately and either restore my paid subscription and extend my phone number's validity accordingly or issue a full refund to my original Apple Account payment balance.
Customers should not have to pay for services they do not receive. I hope the developer takes this matter seriously and provides a prompt resolution.
